When my wife and I were discussing my taking up wargaming she said “Oh well, even if you’re no good at playing, at least they’ll look good on the shelf.” I don’t have a display shelf yet, so I guess my blog will have to do…

My wife won’t let me put my minis up on shelves, sometimes I am lucky if she doesn’t destroy my stuff! Your wife sounds more understanding than mine!
Yes well it depends on the choice of figure – a nice sailing ship, yes, a corpse impaled on a stake (which I’ve yet to paint for my Assyrian camp)… probably not. Your Oggams are rather cute though.
Thanks, I am rather fond of the Oggam myself too! However it wouldn’t stop my wife from accidentally breaking them! She just doesn’t see the point to wargaming and has little respect for any minis. I will just have to get my revenge if she gets anymore antique dolls!
